Condition: NEW. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1995). (1989) 1995 revised edition. 8vo (158 x 240mm). Ppviii,260. B/w illustrations by William Geldart, pictorial end-papers. Black boards, spine titled in gilt. Very good in slightly used dust-wrapper. "In revisiting Outside Days for a new edition, I considered and then resisted the temptation to alter or add to the existing chapters to reflect second thoughts, or changes in my own circumstances. I have simply added six new chapters, written since the first edition was published. And, perhaps most significant, I have wholly rewritten my concluding chapter 'A future for field sports'. Plainly, the perspective has altered since I wrote the original version in 1988, and not for the better. It seems useful to review the new situation." (From the author's preface to this 1995 revised and extended edition). "In this selection of gentle, contemplative musings, Max Hastings shares some of his favourite rural moments; tramping the snipe bogs of Waterford; dogging hedges in Hampshire and moors in Sutherland; casting a fly from Scotland to Iceland and Alska; and shooting in India and the west of Ireland." "Adventure makes the best dreams, whether tiger-fishing in Zimbabwe or crawling alone, rifle-armed and belly-flat, along a Scottish mountainside in winter, the essential physical endeavour and solitude are contained in these accounts of the author's days outdoors." (Country Life).
